Configuring the Cloud environment
In cloud-based computing, you can access web applications and services that run on remote servers using the Internet. Dell
Hybrid Client enables you to access cloud applications and cloud drives seamlessly.
Dell Hybrid Client supports the following cloud applications:
● Azure Office 365
● G Suite
Dell Hybrid Client supports the following cloud storage:
● OneDrive
NOTE: Access to OneDrive is supported when setting up the Office 365 configuration. If Office 365 is not configured,
you cannot access OneDrive from File Explorer. However, you can access OneDrive directly from the web browser.
● Google Drive
Cloud files can be made available in offline mode using File Explorer, where user can use the file when network is not available.
For more information, see Using Dell File Explorer and Save cloud files for offline use.
Single Sign-On (SSO) to cloud applications
Dell Hybrid Client supports Single Sign-On (SSO) to cloud applications and web applications. It enables you to log in only one
time with one set of credentials to get access to all your applications.
● Azure SSO—Dell Hybrid Client supports SSO for Azure.
● GCP SSO—Dell Hybrid Client does not support SSO for GCP (GSuite), and you must enter the credentials when you log in
for the first time. The subsequent login works with SAML-based SSO authentication until you delete the browser cache.
Connect to Azure
Dell Hybrid Client supports only on-prem user sync with Azure AD. Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) is a cloud-based identity
and access management service by Microsoft. It enables you to sign in and access both external and internal resources. You can
access external resources, such as Microsoft Office 365, the Azure portal, and other SaaS applications. You can access internal
resources, such as applications on your corporate network and intranet, along with any cloud applications developed by your
organization.
Prerequisites
Ensure that you have an active Azure account. For more information about the Azure Active Directory On-Prem users sync, see
the Azure documentation at docs.microsoft.com.
